This chapter proves the first non-trivial theorem of the subject which is due to Chevalley. Chevalley’s theorem solves the congruence subgroup problem for the multiplicative group of a global field. We follow this up with a generalisation due to Wehrfritz. Finally, it is shown how to use Chevalley’s theorem to solve the congruence subgroup problem for the group of upper triangular, invertible matrices.
